What do you think? Rooster collar.

So I was browsing through chicken websites and came across this.
http://www.mypetchicken.com/catalog/chickens/No-Crow-Rooster-Collar-p1580.aspx

Does it seem like a good idea? Is it cruel? Will it work?

I don't have a roo but I'm sure I will come across one I would love to have. Maybe this will keep the neighbors happy?

A word of caution...... there have been two accidental deaths of rooster deaths (while wearing no crow collars) reported on this site.

Hmmm, I wonder why? I don't want to harm any Roo.

IMO, it's cruel, to put a humans desire for eye candy before the welfare of health of an animal.

Thank you. I kind of figured it was cruel. I was just kinda hoping it would be a life saver for people who accidently end up with roos.

There are threads on here about no crow collars. There a lot of people that use them successfully. I just wanted to let you know that they should be used very carefully.

In the case of no crow collar, cruelty is in the eye of the beholder. A lot of people who order pullets and end up with a rooster, think butchering and eating a rooster because he crows, is cruelty........
